isu processes

For my ISU i was originally going to do my add campaign on my own i was trying to figure out a way that i could promote ASE1 and when in discussion of brain storming with another student Neela Imani we both came up with a really good idea, that was to remix a well known song and re write lyrics that apply to ASE1 and promote ASE as a school that others would want to attend while still providing information that people may want to know about.

We started off our first day of working together by researching possible songs that we could use for our media campaign. we came up with 3 songs but the one that really stuck out for me and Neela was "started from the bottom" by Drake. We chose this song because me and Neela both felt that it fit with our lives and how we came to ASE1 and why. we started to brainstorm lyrics of words that would rhythm and fit in for how we wanted to paint our picture off ASE1.

Once we had our lyrics down we came up with a story board for how we wanted to film and shoot our music video for ASE1. We also had to record us rapping the lyrics into a recorder which we would edit together latter with the video. We went over things a few times before we actually went to shoot,the shooting process took approximately 2 days total.  We used a tripod for most of our shooting and for the other scenes inside the school we used a dolly shot to create the appearance of us walking towards who ever is watching the video  When we were shooting we wanted to get the point across that Cedarbrae the school me and Neela both came from was our "bottom" and transcending  to ASE was how we had arrived. we also were trying to spoof the original rap video and make a parody or sorts.

After the shooting process was complete we  had to embark on the editing this process didn't quite go as smooth as we had hoped for. it was very difficult to match up the timing of our video with the recording and this process took far long then we had anticipated.Once we had it as close as we could get it timing wise there was the problem that some of our recordings were more quite then others so we had to amplify them but when doing so we realized this decreased the clearness of the sound.

Presenting to the class went smoothly i do wish there was somethings that we could have changed but overall i am really proud of our video that we created together.
